Really?

You don’t see “Sign up for this quiz to find out your true personality” as different than “sign up to support change and spread the word about Barack Obama”?

Facebook is a cesspool, but shady onboarding tactics makes a far more dangerous cesspool.

Rephrased: Both campaigns spammed non-signees, and it looks like the CA people spammed signees as well.
